Detailing is an entire system of car care designed not only to make your vehicle look good, but to extend its life and protect its finish from the elements. Like every other component of the automotive industry, detailing has gone high tech, with state-of-the-art compounds for polishing, cleaning, restoring and protecting every finish on a vehicle, from ABS plastic to stainless steel
Good for the novice. Mike Hansen This book is probably better suited for the average person wanting to know how to get their car REALLY clean. Pro deatailers may not get as much out of this as they would like. This book concentrates on what to do, in what order it should be done, and what products to use.and relies mostly on the directions on the products to give you instructions. The high points were the chapters on Wheels & Tires and Interior Detailing. I found they were the most detailed with the instructions given. This book also contains a chapter about Detailing as a Busines. A Customer said The same old techniques discussed in other detail books. Mr. Taylor has good general knowledge of detailing. How that knowledge would translate into information for experienced professionals is not clear. I can see an auto enthusiast gaining some good general knowledge from this book, however, the knowledge shared is both too general and lacks suffecient explanation. I still haven't found a book that truly shows how the professional detailers make a car into a work of art. Maybe this book comes close, but I was hoping for some honest to goodness tricks and insider techniques!. "Another good general detailing book." according to A Customer. I found the book a little on the general side for the more experienced automotive car care enthusiast such as myself. Ultimate Auto Detailing is probably a little better book in my opinion. The few detailing books that are available don't readily give anymore information than most of the detailing product websites (which seem to be very thorough). If you don't have any basics on detailing consider it, if you already know that there are no true detailing secrets, skip it.
